Footnotes ...

<1>	It's a common practice for mapmakers to remove the apostrophe from possessive names. So Simmons Bay may originally have been Simmon's Bay. Sometimes the trailing 's' might be dropped altogether, in which case Simmons Bay might be written as Simmon Bay. For more information, please visit our Genealogy Helper Page for Simmons Bay.
